This is fascinating! I was just thinking about the definition of "spiritual" because so many people are using it today. Yet I have a hunch that there is no real common agreement on, or understanding of, what "spiritual" really means. I think for some (I suspect, anyway) that it means that they believe in something greater than they are, that "entity" or cause being responsible for what is here in the universe and living on earth, but that does not fit in to any existing World religion's idea of "God" nor does it have some sort of ritual behaviour or thinking (dogma!) attached to it. Why don't we begin by trying to define what we each mean or think about when we hear that someone is a "spiritual" person? Game? Jody
